with Burke, Town
Councilman Salvatore

residents.
"After Ustenmg; to the
residents express
concern for the safety of
their children who have
to cross Central" Park
Avenue and reviewing
the initial survey
conducted- by the
Nassau Department ot
Public Works, it was
decided that a traffic
light would be in­stalled,"

htm Set For Spring
Sunny days and drying soil at
Old Bethpage village restoration
will bring increased activity
around the Powell Farm. During
the spring months the fields and
gardens are plowed and
harrowed, the various crops and
vegetables must be planted and
pasture fences mended in an­ticipation
of grazing livestock on
lush grasses.
The farm is operated much as
it was wheni Richard Powell and
his family and hired: hands
worked it in 1850. The; farm
primarily used man and animal
power. It was this type of
operation that helped produce
nineteenth Century New York""
City.
Today the plowing and
harrowing are again done with
horses.and seeding,,planting and
cultivating depend on hand
methods, the spring field work
requires deliberate on-the spot
decisions to outguess the weather
and to work with the soil.
The farmers are training a set
of two year old steers as a
working team of oxen, and a foal
is expected from one of the
working mares this spring. Old
Bethpage village restoration,
operated by the Nassau County
Department of Recreation and
Parks, is a pre-Civil War farming
community located on Round
Swamp Road, Old Bethpage, exit
48 on the Long Island Ex-
Visitation fees are
adults and $.75 for
children.
